NAME

       TIOCEXCL, TIOCGEXCL, TIOCNXCL - exclusive mode

LIBRARY

       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <asm/termbits.h>  /* Definition of TIOC*XCL constants */
       #include <sys/ioctl.h>

       int ioctl(int fd, TIOCEXCL);
       int ioctl(int fd, TIOCGEXCL, int *argp);
       int ioctl(int fd, TIOCNXCL);

DESCRIPTION

       TIOCEXCL
              Put  the  terminal  into  exclusive  mode.   No  further  open(2)  operations  on the terminal are
              permitted.  (They fail with EBUSY, except for a process with the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability.)

       TIOCGEXCL
              If the terminal is currently in exclusive mode, place a nonzero value in the location  pointed  to
              by argp; otherwise, place zero in *argp.

       TIOCNXCL
              Disable exclusive mode.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, 0 is returned.  On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.

HISTORY

       TIOCGEXCL
              Linux 3.8.
